2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500 Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercedes-Benz? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mercedes-Benz? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Sprinter 1500’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Sprinter 1500 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Sprinter 1500's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2022 Sprinter 1500’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mercedes-Benz. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
